Good Evening!
It's been a busy last couple of weeks...but I've still been creating...I've just been a little slow in posting!
I wanted to share with you today some pie boxes that I decorated for an upcoming church event we're hosting on Valentine's Day.
Let me show you...
I apologize for the photo quality. I landed up having to take the photo with my cell phone.
Our church is holding a fundraiser for our local chapter of Cancer Care and we decided it would be fun to include a "pie walk". I know traditionally it's a "cake walk", but our area is big into pies. I had a few pie boxes left in my stash that had purchased new at our local bakery, and offered to dress them up for the homemade pies to be sold off in the walk. I just thought it would be cute to house those home made pies in a special custom made box. Just one of those little extras to encourage donations. As a friend of mine always says..."love is in the details". LOL
The background paper I used has been printed through my Silhouette Cameo. The adorable owls and the love puppy scene are also cutting files purchased in the Silhouette Online Store.
I'm excited to see how this idea will go over with the people who will be attending the fundraiser. This is the first time we have tried something like this and I'm hoping it will be a great success.
Well thanks for popping in to see what I've had going on lately.
The next few days will be crazy as I've been the main organizer getting everything ready and scheduled for the event. We've painted the church basement, steam cleaned the carpet and are now getting ready to get the meal prep underway. It's a spaghetti supper with Caeser salad and garlic toast...with cheese cake and a pineapple fluff dessert. And of course Valentine cupcakes for the kids. It's a little daunting not knowing how many people will attend. Thank goodness I have a friend who was a caterer and has been willing to help me out with all the silly questions I've had. Hopefully I can give you all a great report after the event.
Until next time...
